ALIE KOROMA - PeerSpot reviewer
Free to use for those signing, reliable, and great for digital signatures
I'm not sure if you can download the signed documentation. They should ensure that every company can accept it. I'm not sure if all companies use it. Often, you need to convert it to Adobe before you can email it. I'd like to see something that helps artists to digitalize their work and upload it online. If a user decides to print work, it should be traceable or signed so you can see who is taking it and using your work without your permission. It would help you protect yourself and your work. Digital signatures that act like a watermark on digital work would be a game-changer. It would be useful if the solution were available on the cloud for free until you need to do something with it.

Prompt tech support; good pricing
Before we started using SignNow, we used to send enrollment agreements to our customers via email, manually asking them to sign those agreements. It was troublesome for them to print the agreements out, sign them, scan them, and then send them back. That was causing a lot of issues when it comes to getting the agreement before the actual contract starts. The reminder feature is also very important. When we send them this agreement electronically, it looks nice to the customer. Before we had this solution, we had about 30% of customers that didn't sign agreements. Now that we have SignNow, that number has dropped to less than five percent.
